The program is just a guideline, so no, you don’t have complete it, and even taking a day off is fine. In the beginning every other day is a rest day anyway, you’ll have a task of some sort, but it’s usually watching a video to prepare for the next day. There’s a lot of great info in the tips and descriptions for each day as well. I’ve kept the main videos around 5 mins or less and even the over all tasks each day shouldn’t take more then 45 mins most of the time. Again it’s just a guideline so you can feel free to stop and start when you want. You may want to re-start the program if you have 2 or more weeks away from physical activity. 🙂

Quancutie, they may be out of office over Presidents day. 🙂

I would say that any pole should not be constantly exposed to elements. SS is probably the least affected by humidity, I think.
The advantage you have using the SV pole is that yes, the mount from your SS LM will work with our pole, and as you know you can quickly remove it and put it back up when you need to.

Hehe I’m glad he like the moves 😊

Hi, the 2 poles I suggest are the Studioveena pole, and the x-pole brand. We sell both here.

This is great news, I’m happy for you! I personally don’t have issues with sweat, but I get many questions about it, so it’s great to hear more good reviews on this! Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

I think it’s a good idea for studios to post their students usual pole attire either on a website on the FQ section or in the studio somewhere. It could also be helpful if someone calls the studio, for the studio to mention what students typically wear, this way new people know what to expect. As VanillaryPuff mentioned being in a class with fully clothed dancers and being the only one who had shorts and tank can be uncomfortable too. Most people just want to blend in! I still think that saying a brand or particular style is not allowed is going a bit too far. Most of us have the common sense to decide if something is not going to stay in place, and often we figure it out! lol I’ve had to re-shoot lessons and video because one of my trusty tops or bottoms was just not so trusty that day! lol
I think as long as someone knows that a class is geared more towards sexy pole wear (this can be an important part of learning about your sexuality) then they can make an informed decision if that class is right for them.
I agree with Charley that implementing a dress code because a pole studio is hoping to promote modesty in pole dance is not necessary AND it disregards much of what pole can teach us about ourselves and our bodies. This is coming from someone who grew up in a home where taking a bath or shower naked seemed wrong!

To my caring and lovely members, this is a perfect example of a troll.
Definition: An internet ‘troll’ is an abusive or obnoxious user who uses shock value to promote arguments and disharmony in online communities. Named after the wicked troll creatures of children’s tales, an internet troll is someone who stirs up drama and abuses their online anonymity by purposely sowing hatred, bigotry, racism, mysogyny, or just simple bickering between others. Trolls like a big audience, so they frequent blog sites, news sites, discussion forums, and game chat. Trolls thrive in any environment where they are allowed to make public comments.
Continue with your conversation everyone. xoxox

Guys, don’t feed the trolls…⬆ï¸
I think this was a great discussion!

PamFern, you’ll find that if you reply to something with a harsh and sarcastic tone others will respond in the same manner. We miss understood what your point was when you made your first comment. I think everyone here agrees that it’s best to wear something that covers your genitals and boobs when in a pole class.

The sv pole can be customs cut for free to fit lower ceilings 😉
-
I love my SV powder coated pole, but I also like the Brass x pole, it’s my new favorite in the xpole line. I like both the SV finish and xpole brass better then my TG which is saying a lot because I used to love the heck out of that finish! lol Chrome is not for me!
-
Pam, I don’t think anyone said we should be naked in a pole class setting, not a single person suggested showing off your vagina or penis in class, what would be the point in doing that?
-
That’s a good question Fools! Personally, it wouldn’t bother me, I don’t know why it should be ok for women and not men. I think we are far to shameful of “skin” showing as a society and it’s just silly.
-
I would have to agree with Lina, I also have not see the video, but to me it just sounds like she is contracting her quadriceps and hyperextending her knees. Lifting the legs up while in straddle would be amazingly difficult, so I’m guessing that’s not what the exercise is about.
-
A really good warm up as everyone mentioned is the best way to stick to your pole. If you’re taking the lessons here try using the Basic warm up, this routine is designed to warm your body AND pole!
Here’s the link 🙂 https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/525b64a6-b328-401e-85e7-456c0ac37250 -
If you’re taking the lessons you’ll find a bunch of stretching, and strength work you can do to help prevent tendonitis issues. You’ll find them under the Conditioning and Stretching sections. 🙂

Brook, yes the pole adjust, if you buy the 9-10 ft sv pole it will adjust up to 10 feet. You would only need to custom cut the pole if your ceilings are LOWER then 8 ft. Yes the SV pole is sent from lil mynx so if a SV pole needs to be cut they will cut it. 🙂

Trust me you’re not alone in feeling that way! I’m sure others will have some helpful advice too! The first thing I want to mention though, is to avoid the mindset of after 4 years of poling you should be at a certain “level”. This kind of thought process can really get in a person down and lead to feelings of frustration and failure. That’s not what pole is about! There is no rule that says after 4 years everyone who enjoys pole should be doing Shoulder Mounts.
Poling at home isn’t always easy for some, but here are a few things you can try:
Pick out a list of your favorite music and freestyle, it doesn’t matter what it looks like just enjoy your own movement.
Try the 30 day take off program, even if you don’t “do” everything listed, at least watch and read the descriptions for each day, they have a lot of great info and tips in them.
Try using the routines or combos in the lessons, there’s a new section with all routines, strength, abs pole work all under that category too.
Try meeting up with another member here in the Chat room. You can video chat and work on things together. Setting a time to meet can keep you accountable.
This video has some tips that can help too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kvzZndaick
Also take some time to think about why you want to pole? Find reasons to pole for YOU, not because you want to look like so and so when you dance. We all have our own strengths so write yours down and try working on them.
Good luck!

Jenn, if you are thinking about the SV pole it’s both static and spinny. Something else to consider is the special Valentine offer for the xsport pole (static), buy the sport and get 6 months of my lessons and free shipping.

You can really wear whatever you want for pole shoes, the thing is some of the stripper heel brands are higher quality then others and will last longer. Even some of the high quality brands have had quality complaints, f you want stripper heels that will last, avoid heels with lots of thin straps, they seem to be the most fragile. Pleaser and Ellies are good options. I sometimes like to wear my ballroom heels as well.

Thank you for sharing yourself with us! Happy 4th Birthday!

We can have the sv custom cut for you, just make a note for us when you order. 🙂

Don’t apologize!! I only have one day of heavy flow and it makes me tired, the rest of my period I’m pretty normal energy wise. However, if I stub my toe or smack my hand against something I notice my pain tolerance is way lower!

Yeah I would check out your other peices and contact them, they can help. 🙂
